[SystemSafety] Tumble-Dryer Dangers

[Peter Bernard Ladkin]

Fluff comes into contact with the heating element on some tumble dryers manufactured by Whirlpool
(and sold under a variety of labels). Domestic fires are caused and some of them are really serious.

This note is, in part, because it's interesting for system safety. And in part because list
participants might well own one!
